How do I add a video onto my form in a Delphi TMS WEB Core project?

Question

When I search for "image" in the Component Palette, I find many image-related components and I can use the TWebImageControl component to add a images onto my form:

But when I search for "video" in the Component Palette, then I get nothing:

Are there no video-related components?

How can I add a video to my form?

Answer 1

The component for adding a video to a form is the TWebMultimediaPlayer component.

You can then use the following properties to configure the video:

• URL: Link to the video file
• AutoPlay: Boolean to set if the content will start playing as soon as it is ready
• Loop: Boolean to set if the content is played in a continuous loop
• Controls: Boolean to set if the playback controls are displayed

The TWebMultimediaPlayer component will be compiled into a <video> HTML tag.
